A shell-shocked Marussia
team regrouped seven days
in Sochi later but fielded only
one car for Chilton, and lasted
only nine laps, while its sister
GP3 squad was absent alto-
gether. Marussia owner Andrei
Cheglakov had cut the funding
for the team, claiming Bianchi’s
crash deeply affected him, but
the money had been running
dry even before the fateful day
at Suzuka, accentuated by the
increased costs of the V6 power
units and the stagnant global
economy, still in the doldrums
following the financial crash.
Marussia missed the United
States and Brazilian Grands Prix
and entered administration;
whereas mud was slung be-
tween past and present owners
as Caterham too sunk towards
oblivion, Marussia exited in
dignified fashion, finishing ninth
in the standings, in front of
Sauber and Caterham. Marussia
came close to re-appearing for
the Abu Dhabi finale, but the
11th hour talks fizzled out.
In a sport where positive sur-
prises are a rare commodity,
one such situation arose in
February 2015 when murmur-
ings of Marussia’s revival rip-

Marussia was a more attrac-
tive proposition than Caterham

classifications in the stand-
ings, meaning money was on
offer if it made the grid, and
Ovo Energy founder Stephen
Fitzpatrick emerged as its
new investor. With its name
tweaked, Manor Marussia
worked frantically to ready an
updated version of its MR03,
tweaked to comply with re-
vised regulations, for the sea-
son-opening race in Australia,
but the time taken to recover
wiped software meant neither
Will Stevens nor Roberto Merhi
turned a wheel. Their absence
raised ire in some quarters, but
their appearance in Malaysia
quelled concerns and the team
re-established itself on the grid.
Running a year-old chassis, and
year-old Ferrari power units,
Stevens, Merhi and Alexander
Rossi were left marooned at
the back of the grid. Manor
Marussia did not out-qualify
a single rival at any race, with
the MR03Bs regularly several
seconds off the pace. Only at
The Russian GP in 2014 was dark day for
Marussia and was their final grand prix
